Enabling Data Value Creation with Data Governance: A Success Measurement Model

Abstract

This paper deals with measuring the success of Data Governance as an information system in corporate environments. Evaluating the success of information systems is an important but controversial topic for corporate management. It is not easy to measure the success or effectiveness of information systems in order to justify past and future investments. Many models have been developed by researchers to support the fulfilment of both tasks. The main objective of our work as ongoing research is to examine and review the most important models of information systems success. We have compared these models and discussed their relevance to the field of Data Governance. Key findings are the adapted and supplemented success factors for Data Governance and a preliminary model for measuring Data Governance based on DeLone and McLean's Information Systems Success Measurement Model.
